  • What the experts say...

    Ce vin séduisant, vêtu d'une impressionnante robe rubis foncé, est un Saint-Emilion des plus intéressants. Outre sa couleur dense, il présente un bouquet énorme de fruits confiturés, et se montre très corsé et charnu en bouche, où il déploie encore un généreux fruité. Vraiment impressionnant. (...)
